Improv for a Good Cause

I've never done any improv piecing.
I know, I know, but remember, I took a ten year break from quilting. Then I jumped back in with patterns. The Austin Modern Quilt Guild's American Cancer Society Relay for Life donation quilt is the perfect opportunity for me to give improv piecing a try.

The blocks had to be 12.5" wide but could be any length, so I had some room to play. It was fun! The seam ripper did make an appearance as I tried to figure out what I was doing and use my fabric efficiently, but it still went together fairly quickly.
